Quote:After reading that story, the police that shot the man did nothing wrong. He shot at them with a shotgun.


If anyone should be held responsible, it should be whoever was in charge of the investigation and the judge who signed off on it. Even so, the culpable party doesn't appear to have done anything criminal, unless there was some gross negligence that wasn't mentioned. The investigators and possibly the judge should lose their job, but the officers that performed the raid acted in self-preservation.

 

An innocent man died because he was attacked in his home by the government. The GOVERNMENT is the one who is culpable for ensuring that their investigations are carried out correctly. As I said, when they screw up the use of deadly force then innocent people lose something that cannot be recovered or compensated for.
